just sitting here on my mates WLAN and thought I would download a couple of movies before I go back to the wet string of GPRS...Looking at the download speed on VUZ./Torrent. it is 1.2 kbs/s will be finished by the end of May maybe...The WLAN internet speed test shows a full 5MB down ..any ideas guys...have tried a couple of sources..same miserable speeds

I am being choked here in Ubon on 3bb, who are you with and where are you.

Try changing away from the default ports, turn on encryption.

3BB certainly choked my torrents in Pattaya, I have changed to Sophon here and all is good.

I find Deluge to be faster than Vuze or utorrent, but am still being choked down to 300kb/s on 3bb.

I too here in Ubon are being choked on both torrents and file sharing. At the moment i am downloading one file at a steady 300kbps. Yesterday if i restarted my modem it would jump to 950kbps and then run for a couple of hours and then back to 300. restart modem back to 950. today no matter how many restarts max 300.

Iam glad you posted your reply as no-one else till you seemed to be choked at 300.

Even my newsgroup servers are being choked down to 300kb/s with SSL enabled.

they are really throttling today down to 90kbps from my nice and steady 300kbps.

You must open a port in the router.

300 kbps is really sloww. This is only 37.5 kBps !

Are you sure your line is OK ?
